Made it to another year is playing in the heart. Looking forward to summer are in the lyrics. A French horn echoes the determination to handle all the hardships that may be in our way.

I am fearful these days. I want to let go of the fear..
ReplyDeleteMarie,
ReplyDeletePrayer helps against fear. The way the world is going, I expect it will take time to adjust if things get better.

May this is a lovely photo of a winter sunrise. There is something special about early mornings when the day starts. I read Marie's comment and then yours. I know prayer certainly helps me with anxiety and fear. I do not think there are any human beings who do not feel the anxiousness that surrounds us. Take care friend and may 2026 be a wonderful year for you. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful year to you, Debbie! Hugs
DeleteThe upset news never stops. People are amazing how they are handling the fear we can’t avoid.

I sure get the fear-there sometimes is just way too much every day to comprehend! I agree that prayer is the answer.
ReplyDeleteDebra,
DeleteAlong with prayer? going to church or listening to sermons online also helps.

I love the words you've written here, May. I'm momentarily feeling emotionally knocked down (by an arrogant, or maybe fearful, doctor, of all people). I know the emotional wound will get less pronounced with time, but it feels truly unfortunate to have begun a new year this way. So you don't have to wonder, it's not a health issue, it's an unsatisfactory communication and service issue, with verbal insult added to injury. I'm not at all confident in my own strength, but I'm praying God will heal this too.
ReplyDeleteBecki,
DeleteIn the background of our difficult times, there is always a place to be good to ourselves. Thinking of what we could have done, beforehand, the what can I do phase, I find it is helpful to think of the source. Arrogant people have problems that are not ours.
Be good to yourself

Such wise words -- be confident in your own strength.
ReplyDeleteJeanie,
DeleteThank you. This year will need all the strength we have.
I think those words I'll be writing on a tee shirt.

wow!!! what a gorgeous sky!! i enjoyed the content you shared... i am not confident all of the time but i do try!! i know i have the strength of a warrior, my doctor told me so!!
ReplyDeleteDebbie,
DeleteGood words from a doctor are golden!
I laugh remembering how pleased my doctor was that I can stand from a sitting position without using any assist. Then I read that’s a test of a person’s health, mobility. So sometimes I do it at home. 😂

Happy New Year Cathy! 🎉🥳
DeleteI agree that fear seems to be almost all-encompasing these days. It's so hard to turn my mind away from what's going on in the world and it's such a difficult balance between listening to the news so I stay informed and feeling overwhelmed by it all.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteI watch news programs on Youtube where actual people in the news are having their say, no second hand news reporting. It helps me feel less anxious abiut the turmoil going on.
